Another Win for Ajith Kumar: Actor’s Racing Team Secures Podium Finish at 12H Mugello in Italy
Ajith recently returned to professional racing, forming his own team and competing in international events.
Actor and professional racer Ajith Kumar and his team secured third place at the prestigious 12H Mugello race in Italy over the weekend. The team celebrated their podium finish in style, with jubilant scenes of champagne showers and victory cheers.
A video posted by Ajith Kumar Racing Team captured the celebratory moment. “Victory in style! Team @Akracingoffl shines at the 12H Mugello, Italy, celebrating a fantastic podium finish! Kudos to @fabian_fdx89, @mathdetry, and @BasKoetenRacing for their stellar performance on the track!” they wrote on X (formerly Twitter).
In the video, Ajith is seen proudly holding the Indian flag as fans cheer him on. Some supporters even wore custom-made T-shirts to show their admiration. The podium ceremony saw the winning teams popping champagne, with Ajith’s teammates playfully drenching him in it, even pouring some down the back of his racing suit. Although he initially struggled to open his own bottle, once he did, he gleefully returned the favor.
The team also shared celebratory photos on Instagram, writing, “That’s another podium for Ajith Kumar Racing in Europe for the @24hseries 12H of Mugello. P3 in the 992 AM category for our 3 lions. Next stop: Spa-Francorchamps in Belgium for the 12H of Spa.”
Ajith recently returned to professional racing, forming his own team and competing in international events. Despite a few crashes during practice runs—including a dramatic car flip in Spain—he has remained determined, adjusting his approach to ensure his team’s success.
On the film front, Ajith was last seen in Vidaamuyarchi (2024), which received mixed reviews. He will next star in Good Bad Ugly alongside Trisha, with rumors of a collaboration with Dhanush also making rounds.
